This is the first time the exhibition will be hosted by CityVarsity Cape Town and the exhibition will run 14-21 February. Adobe was the official partner of the exhibition in 2010, as part of the creative software provider's 20th anniversary celebration of its flagship product, Photoshop, and will be continuing its support throughout 2011.
One of the exhibition's goals is to educate audiences and, in line with this, Adobe will be hosting a complimentary workshop at CityVarsity. These sessions will then continue across other venues on the exhibition's calendar.
"As providers of award-winning technology and software that enables creativity, we are extremely excited to once again be partnering with the Loeries Travelling Exhibition," says Leonard Rabotapi, marketing and PR manager at Adobe Systems sub-Saharan Africa. "This relationship enables us to promote and reward excellence in the creative industry. We certainly see our partnership growing to offer even more value to the creative community."

Evert Lombaert, CityVarsity's national PR manager and film lecturer, comments, "We hold the Loeries in extremely high regard for its multidisciplinary appeal and we actively encourage our students to enter annually.
